It's legal to have 'offset + len' equal to
sizeof(struct virtio_net_config), since 'ndev->config' is a
'struct virtio_net_config', so we can safely copy its content under
this condition.

Actually first I am not sure we need these checks at all.
vhost_vdpa_config_validate already validates the values, right?


I think they're working at different levels. There's no guarantee that vhost-vdpa is the driver for this vdpa device.


Maybe we can do these checks in the vdpa_get_config() helper and we can also add a vdpa_set_config() to do the same.

Thanks,
Stefano



Second, what will happen when we extend the struct and then
run new userspace on an old kernel? Looks like it will just
fail right? So what is the plan?


In this case, get_config() should match the spec behaviour. That is to say the size of config space depends on the feature negotiated.

Thanks


 I think we should
allow a bigger size, and return the copied config size to userspace.
